Getting ready for the @magicalmomentsmn princess party like 😆😍💃🏻
•
Ever since I told Cici a few days ago that we would be attending the @magicalmomentsmn Spring Ball she has been working on all things princess life; makeup, twirls, warm hugs, you know, the basics. I’m not sure if Aurora is fully on board with this whole princess gig yet...but something tells me she is going to have to be 😅
•
The spring ball is coming up FAST; have you purchased your tickets yet??? I hope you have, but if not make sure you use my discount code HonestlyMagical for 20% off your purchase! I am so excited to get to go and hang out with all our fairytale friends again and can’t wait to see you there! Make sure you let me know which session you’re attending!
•
Also swipe to see photos from the last ball we went to; Cici thinks all the princesses are her new BFFs 🤣

Me: "Hi Friends! My name is Dr. Christelle and I'm a women's health and pediatric chiropractor!"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Random Friend: " Ummmm...so what do you do? 🙄 "⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I help busy Mommas make self care a priority. I speak truths, love and healing into my patient's life so that they are at their optimal. I help Mommas, just like you, fill their cups up so that they can pour love and energy into their families and lives. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I also take care of kiddos! Kids who have a balanced nervous system function better, have better immune systems, sleep better and are happier. This leads to happy Mommas 😉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Moms...how are you filling up your cup today?

I have never been so excited to workout in my life! Hehe
Why?? Because that means when I’m done with this workout, I am ONE workout away from boarding an airplane ✈️, heading to Florida with my favorite person (my hubby) 💏 to board a cruise ship 🛳 and sail away for 6 days!
Best part? I get to see all of my business besties. I get to workout with the super trainers that train me from my TV. I get to relax, lay in the sun, have quality time with Jesse, AND brainstorm with some of the top leaders in the business.
Best BEST part?? I EARNED this trip for me and my husband completely!! from the hard work and dedication of helping inspire other to live their best lives through fitness and nutrition. And I couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing women who have trusted me with their health.
So let’s get this workout done, so I can pack my bags and be that much closer to hitting the road! Or air...? Lol either way. I am so pumped!
Ps.. want a behind the scenes look at what I do, and what exciting things will be happening on the ship?
Comment below with a 💙 and I’ll add you to our arrow tribe sneak peak!

If you’ve known me long enough you probably have noticed that I am the type of girl whose size and shape changes over time
.
I’ve trained for half marathons, I’ve spent nights lifting at the gym or following workout videos in my basement. I’ve eaten very clean and well, not so clean 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ve prepared to look my best on my wedding day. I’ve also created and brought life into this world and with that I’ve dealt with some postpartum struggles. These days i spend my time trying to keep up with a very active toddler
.
Each of these seasons of life have shown me something about how amazing our bodies really are!
.
Throughout ALL of these stages, I’ve had MY CREW-cheering me on, pushing me to never give up and reminding me of why I started.
.
If you don’t have your own crew, find one! Or better yet-join mine! 🙋🏻‍♀️
.
Having support and love throughout the MANY changes in my life is why I will never stop working towards my goals
.
If you need ANY accountability in your life, I am here! As long as you’re willing to do the work, I’m willing to keep pushing you! 😘

So, I told you all about our love for Raglan Road in Disney Springs just a few days ago on St. Patrick's Day. 🍀
It was one of our favorite moments from our Walt Disney World vacation, so its needs it's own post! ☘☘ https://exploringdomesticity.com/raglan-road-disney-springs/ ☘☘ If you're looking for something to do on a non-park day, or an early dinner before one of the park parties, this is such a fun option!! The most fun!
Just this week Little Lady has been Irish dancing in our livingroom, Little Guy jas been singing the songs, and I have been craving The Big Q burger and Strawberry Lime Cider. 🍻
It was amazing!! Check out the blog for all the info and our Walt Disney World 2019 story highlights for videos from that night! 🍀

What do your mornings look like?
Are you proactive about your mornings or reactive?
For the longest time I lived my mornings being reactive. Waking up to my kids when they wake up and yell for me, scrolling through social media letting that determine how my day was going to be all the while I was basically still half asleep. 💤 I left no time for my self in the morning which meant that by the afternoon my cup was empty. I had no more energy or patience to give to anyone.
After stumbling upon a podcast that explained the difference between a proactive morning and a reactive morning. I decided what the heck obviously what I was doing was not working up to that point.
I started waking up a half hour to an hour before everyone else in my house was up (of course people think I’m nuts for this 😂). I use the time meditate, write in my gratitude journal, drink my mom fuel, read a book, get my workout in, and shower. Only after these things are done and I’ve set my intention for the day do I even look at my phone and check messages. This has been such a game changer for me.
Now when I hear my kids wake up after I’ve taken my time to myself for the morning I am able to enjoy the day with my family and have patience.
I start each day with a full cup and in turn I am able to pour into others ❤️

This last week has been pretty crazy personally, but in a good way. I have a lot of exciting things in the works right now! (More to come on all this at a later date 😘) I'm so excited about life right now and everything that's happening. I'm honestly the happiest and in the most positive space I've ever been in and I can whole heartedly say it's because of this amazing community!
// Additionally, we launched a NUTRITION ONLY program where we'll be walking our clients through a course of 30+ videos designed to educate them on how to break sugar addictions, why it’s important to eat from ALL the food groups, and how to know exactly how much their individual bodies need to eat every day to be well nourished!
// Nutrition has always been the hardest for me! For has long as I can remember I've had a sweet tooth and I love my not so healthy carbs! Give me all the donuts, ice cream & pasta!🍦// This was all fine and dandy when I was growing up and my metabolism was high, but once I settled into my 20's and 2 kids later, it ALLLL started going to my belly and thighs.// It wasn’t until about 2 years ago when I discovered an easy portion control system that everything started to make sense to me. I learned which foods contained the most nutrients, and which ones I needed to cut back on because they really weren’t serving me! I learned that I could still enjoy family favorites, but that my body felt better when they were more of a treat than an everyday occurrence!
// This simple to use system has been HUGELY expanded since it launched 5 years ago, and I’m so excited for the brand new version that launched Monday!
// This is not a quick fix or a fad diet. It’s a sustainable way of eating that you can incorporate and teach your whole family! I'm looking for 8 women who will be my guinea pigs and go through a TEST GROUP with me where I’ll be helping you reach your goals one day at a time and teach you habits that will serve you the rest of your life!
// Please note:This is a NUTRITION ONLY group! You do not need to use our workout programs, they are optional!//
If you’d like to get more info for this, please comment below with a food emoji and I'll send you details!

Do more of what makes you happy...it’s something I really need to sit back and reflect on. Realistically, I’m sure everyone would benefit from sitting back and thinking about this one. So now is just as good of time as any to get started : I’m making my life list of loves and hates. I’m going to hold my loves very near and dear to my heart (my husband, our amazing son, my family and friends, and professional passions, and my dreams) and give them more attention, and I’m going to start crossing off my hates...life is way to short...I refuse to spend any sort of measurable time miserable, mad, or anything along those lines. There is always time to make a change...the only permanent thing in life is death. And even then if u believe you live. #makeitcount#live#life#love#passion#family#happy#lovelife#livelife#mom#boymom#minnesotamom#domoreofwhatmakesyouhappy

He is the kind of husband and father that I never dreamt of. I had no idea what I needed when it came to a husband...he is it. The kind that shows up everyday for all of us in ways I never knew we were gonna need. A real life family man. The kind that is faithful in the little things, even when it is messy and really hard. Happy Birthday @thadenpatrick .

C meal prep

E Grocery shopping for me & my family
F emotional eating
G all of the above
Don’t be shy - believe me I’ve struggled with all of the above at one time or another!!

What ignites your fire? 🔥⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If I could pick only three things I love about being a chiropractor, I’d pick being able to TURN ON people's power, helping kiddos grow strong, and helping Moms THRIVE in motherhood. These are the things that make all the hard work, late nights, and sacrifices worth it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What would your three things be?

Ever since we went to the auto show, London’s been asking me when she will be old enough to drive. I asked her if she thought daddy would buy her a car when she got her driver’s license. She said “No, I’ll just save my money and buy one for myself. I’ll probably have $127,000 by then.” What can I say, my girl’s got big dreams and expensive taste. 🤑🚗 Also! That truck is built out of Legos. 😳 @tcautoshow

Life can be hard, but GIVING UP was not an option for us 💞 we weren't ready for the stumble in the road to be the end of our journey! 💞 We are thankful every day that we didn't give up after our 1st round of #ivf because now we have this beautiful boy that melts our 💖 everyday!! #lovehimtopieces .
I support the #1in8

@the_well_shift we are always looking for ways to make dinner easy and healthy! Sheet pan dinners really couldn’t be easier! Toss all your ingredients together, put it on a sheet pan and into the oven it goes. Easy as can be! Here is the recipe we tried last night!
.
.
Sheet Pan Chicken Curry
6 cloves garlic, grated
2 tsp curry powder
1 tsp Garam masala
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp grated fresh ginger
4 T coconut oil
Mix all the above ingredients together in a large bowl to make a paste
2lbs boneless skinless chicken breast cut into 2 in cubes
1 head of cauliflower cut into 2 in pieces
Toss the chicken and cauliflower in the paste to coat. Spread evenly onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for about 15-20 min. at 425 degrees
Serve with cilantro, pickled red onions and naan. Enjoy!

Are you a "leftovers" person? I love them because if makes lunchtime so easy!

Today International Day of Happiness AND the first day of Spring. 💐
Coincidence? I mean probably not but holy smokes I needed spring! I think happiness is to be celebrated every day but sometimes it’s more of a fight for others and that’s ok. When I think of what makes me happy I think of days like this exact one from last spring. Warm hugs and kisses, time with these two and warm sunny days. && hey @megannphotoh I can’t wait to update these photos this spring! Because it’s starting to feel like spring I feel like I have lots of these days ahead of me and that makes me so gosh darn happy. What makes you happy?

Progress over perfection ✨
.
Three years ago, I had no idea what I was getting myself into but I needed a change.
.
Was I going to starve on this meal plan? How was I going to find time to meal prep? How was I going to workout with two small babies?
.
I was desperate for something to work so I picked a day and I STARTED!
.
Little did I know it was more food than I could often eat. I measured my portions in perfectly sized colored containers. I tweaked some of my favorite recipes to make them more healthy. I started replacing nutrients I was missing. I started to see a CHANGE!
.
I felt good. I felt strong. I love having my babies workout with me and watch their mom do unthinkable things.
.
Our new program is diving into emotional eating, offering new recipes, kids lunches, workouts and support.
.
You can do this, you are not alone. But you have to START first. Message me to get started today! .

Someone asked me yesterday to name my top 3 favorite Beautycounter products- not an easy feat as there are so many. The sunscreen and cleansing balm are definitely up there along with this guy, the No. 2 facial oil. This winter, the cleansing balm has been my nighttime skin saver and this facial oil has for sure been the day time saver. My skin feels so different this winter with the introduction of this product- and this was by far the harshest winter we have had since our move from California almost 6 years ago. My face feels moisturized but not greasy and my overall complexion is brighter with the added hydration. I now crave that refreshing Jasmine scent every morning. And I love knowing that this oil is derived from plants and NOT filled with toxic synthetic fragrances and fillers. I’ve been loving this oil so much that I just ordered the No. 1 oil to throw into the mix! 👏
I would love to help you find the right oil for your skin- there are 3! Message me to connect for more info or you can shop the link in my bio. Here’s to safer skin care and better hydrated glowing skin!

The essence of life is growth. Humans are the only life form that will do less. 🥀
A tree will grow as high as it can, roots as low as they can, and as many leaves as they can. All life forms strive to their max except humans. 🌳
Choice makes us different. Choose to be happy. Choose to grow to your maximum potential. Choose to accomplish your dreams. ☀️
